[anchor=21]2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION[/anchor]

 

There are different tiers of expertise in archaeology. The tier depends on the discoveries you have made. You get "discovery points" by smashing the rocks inside each site. With every tier you get access to other pokemons/items. You can verify your tier by Gingery Jones in Glacial Site.

If you encounter a spawn you're not "expert" enough to get, the pokémon will flee or the item gets destroyed. If u are in range of the neccessary number of discoveries there is a chance that a pokemon wont flee (i found 3 shroomish with around 1k discoveries on my secondary account. The first and third fled but i was able to catch the second one)

 

In every site you can find items:

- Itemicon_Tafelwasser.png fresh water / Itemicon_Fluchtseil.png escape rope / Itemicon_Minipilz.png tiny mushroom / Itemicon_Hyperball.png ultra ball / Itemicon_Sonderbonbon.png rare candy

- All Kanto / Hoenn / Kalos fossils after 4800 discoveries but they can still break without ms

 

[anchor=22]2.2 SHINY ROCKS[/anchor]

351892 Bagon & Pawniard are like tier 50000000

There's also a chance of smashing fossils if you don't have MS.

I havent smashed a fossil since i reached the 4800 discoveries without ms

I have over 7500 discoveries and I have MS activated almost all the time, never smashed one. My MS ran out a few days ago and I didn't realize it till I smashed a fossil. Activated it again, didn't smash a single one.
